Message from Joanna Barlow (Lumley)

My very dear Everyone at the Canterbury Day Nursery… all the staff, and parents and children, and helpers and well wishers, and attendant animals… I WISH I could be with you today, but I am far away and blowing kisses to you all, hoping that you have a perfect day and that the sun shines down on you. This charity is my oldest, if that makes sense: I have been your Patron for so many thousand years that I am quite puffed up with pride in all you do and everything you have achieved. May you go from strength to strength; and even though wonderful changes have taken place, you still remain the same, the best of the best. Patsy would say ” Cheers sweeties!!” and I totally agree with her. I send you all my love and fondest thoughts. Joanna xxx
